Ingredients

2 sweet potatoes (large, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice)
1 tablespoon avocado oil
0.5 cup water
1 teaspoon ground cumin
0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon garlic powder
0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
0.5 teaspoon salt
2 can black beans (rinsed and drained)
1 package frozen sweet corn
0.25 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt (for serving)

Instructions

Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced sweet potatoes and sauté for 3 minutes until lightly browned on the edges.
Add water, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, garlic powder, ground coriander, and salt to the skillet. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for 6 to 7 minutes over medium heat until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
Uncover the skillet and stir in the drained black beans and frozen sweet corn. Cook uncovered for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has evaporated and the beans and corn are heated through.
Divide the warm skillet mixture among serving bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired and top each portion with a generous spoonful of plain nonfat Greek yogurt.

Notes

Leftovers reheat very well in the microwave; store extra Greek yogurt separately to add fresh after warming.
